The National Academies' Board on Science, Technology, and Economic
Policy has joined with the American Intellectual Property Law
Association and the Federal Trade Commission in a series of regional
town meetings on US patent reform in late winter and spring 2005. The
purpose of these meetings was both educational and to discuss
differences of detail in the largely consistent recommendations of the
three organizations. The final wrap-up symposium will be held in
Washington, DC - June 9, 2005. The agenda is available at
http://www7.nationalacademies.org/step/June_9_2005_Agenda.pdf .

This conference is being held at the National Academy of Sciences
Building Auditorium located at 2100 C  Street, NW. There is no
registration fee for the conference, and no CLE has been requested. If
